Earlier today, Politico reported that South Carolina Democratic party chairwoman Carol Fowler said Sarah Palin’s “primary qualification seems to be that she hasn’t had an abortion.” In a conference call with reporters, South Carolina Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham fired back. Graham says he is “quite frankly shocked that [Fowler] would say such a thing.” He says he knows Carol and her husband Don “fairly well.” Graham thinks Fowler’s outburst is due to the fact that his “Democratic opponents and colleagues are in meltdown mode over Governor Palin.”
